On my first night there, I ran into fellow South Florida food blogger, Jason Perlow from Off The Broiler. We decided on getting food we can't typically find in South Florida and settled on Sichuanese Cuisine. The restaurant has been around for over 20 years and it's located in Seattle's "International District." It's in a small shopping plaza and it's humbly decorated; definitely not trying to impress patrons with high-end decor. The vast majority of the diners at the restaurant were all of Asian decent, so we assumed the food had to be legit.
The food is served family style so we decided to just get a little bit of everything. We went with Stir Fried Potatoes, Vegetarian Mapotofu, Sichuanese Ravioli and Kung Pao Chicken. Everything was delicious, even the tofu. We were also served complimentary hot teal and white rice to go with our food. My favorites were the Stir Fried Potatoes (f*$%!n delicious #OHEMGEE) and the Kung Pao Chicken. The vegetarian mapotofu is tofu cooked in a Sichuan pepper sauce with onions, personally too spicy for me. The Sichuan Ravioli (not pictured) were also delicious.

I found a place called the Biscuit Bitch about a block from where I was staying and I wanted to check it out. Then I found out this place serves breakfast all day and this bitch had to go. The place reeks of sass and hipster

I would definitely go back here, the food was great albeit very heavy. Their homemade country gravy and those biscuits won me over.

I went to Seattle hell-bent on trying out food I can't find in Miami, specifically Asian food. I wasn't going to be eating at a damn Cheesecake Factory on this trip #SoHelpMeGawd. So when the chance to go to a tiny little sushi restaurant called Tsukushinbo (I've still got no fucking clue how to pronounce that, so don't feel bad if you can't pronounce it either), I jumped at the chance. This place has no website and is mostly unknown, even to the few locals I asked about it. Even the outside of the restaurant has no sign, you'd have no way of knowing there was a restaurant there unless you opened the door and stuck your head in.
I ran into Joshua Marcus from Surfside's Josh's Deli in Seattle, so we checked the place out together. We sat right at the bar and saw the chef work his magic. We quickly realized their must be a secret menu to this place because pieces of fish and sushi that weren't listed on the menu were being sent to different tables. I stuck to a feast of nigiri consisting of tai, toro, sake, maguro, tako. All delicious and ridiculously fresh.

I had several people tell me that the best Mac and Cheese I'll ever have could be found at Beecher's Handmade Cheese in Seattle. So naturally, I had to go for myself and check it out. The place is located right across from the famous Pike Place Market and they make their own cheese in front of you, literally. In addition to their mac and cheese, they sell a large selection of homemade cheeses, crackers and sandwiches.
